Lewisham Homes has instructed Invasive Vegetation Management & Treatment Limited (IVM) to carry out numerous eradication programmes on land within our management remit across the borough since 2007.

The majority of our sites have been treated by IVM using the FAST™ System. We have found this system to have a 100% success rate in eradicating Japanese Knotweed within the desired timescale.

In addition to the treatment systems, IVM's site progress reports and surveys are extremely informative and enable us to be kept up to date with each sites progress on a regular basis. Photographic evidence of treatment progress ensures we are completely up to date with progress on every site, without having to visit.

Our resident and customers have also commented on the professionalism of the staff, and their willingness to listen and react to individual needs or concerns.

We look forward to working with IVM on future projects and would not hesitate to recommend them to other companies for all invasive weed issues.â€

We contracted IVM to excavate and remove some Japanese knotweed from one of our sites in South London; their expert supervision reduced the volume of contaminated soils leaving our site by nearly 75% from our initial estimates. We would definitely use IVM on our next project where we come across invasive weeds.
